(Received June 11, at 1.35 p.m.) The agricultural strikers in Badajoz province are prepared to let the finest harvest for half a century rot in the fields rather than yield to the demands of the employers. The strikers declare that they have starved for two years and can starve a bit longer. One hundred and fifty thousand people are affected. Fierce fighting continues with the civil guards. The prisons in hundreds ot small townships in the south of Spain are overflowing. Thousands of peasants have been arrested. An attempt on the life of Senor Jose Primo de Rivera, son of the late dictator, failed.
